Ammonium Chloride Production Cost Reports

Ammonium chloride production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Ammonium chloride production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Ammonium chloride. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

Ammonium chloride with the chemical formula (NH4Cl), also called sal ammoniac, is sodium carbonate's by-product. It is the salt of ammonia and hydrogen chloride. It is the end-product obtained following the ammonia-soda process that is used for making sodium carbonate. It is also produced by the ammonium sulfate and sodium chloride solutions reaction. The inorganic chloride has ammonium as the counterion and functions like a ferroptosis inhibitor. It is usually made on burning coal dumps because of condensation of coal-derived gases and is present around certain kinds of volcanic vents.

In its pure form, it appears to be a crystalline white salt that has diuretic and expectorant effects. It is very soluble in water and slightly acidic. Its molecular weight is 53.491 g/mol, and its density is 1.53 g/cm³. Its boiling and melting points are 520 °C and 338 °C, respectively.

The Ammonium Chloride market is driven by its use in veterinary medicine to prevent urinary stones in goats, sheep, and cattle. Furthermore, it is used as a nitrogen supply in fertilizers and dry cells as an electrolyte which furthers its market growth. It also finds use as a constituent of galvanizing, tinning, and soldering fluxes to get rid of oxide coatings from metals, enhancing the adhesion of the solders. In addition, it is a key element found in several proprietary cold medicines and cough remedies due to its efficacy as an expectorant.

Furthermore, it also finds use as a flavouring agent in liquorice, as an acidifier, and in food additives – in bread making as a yeast nutrient. It is also used to bond plywood in glue, in Leclanche cells in aqueous solutions, in cooling baths to create low temperatures etc., which further the market's expansion. It is also found in self-care products like body wash and cleanser, shampoo, facial cleanser, hair colour and bleach, conditioner, hand dishwashing detergent, and in bath oils and salts.
